Okay so was it wasn’t really necessary to drudge up my fustrations with nirvanacat from over a year ago? *grumbles, embarrassed in a corner* That was resolved a LONG time ago and I apologized several times for my ranting. No need to remind other forum members of what a jerk I can be when I’m mad. LOL! We all know I have a bad attitude when I loose auctions =D
We’re all human here and I can plainly understand both views. Particularly Kyrins, since. *as everyone can plainly see* I’ve been there too.
We’ve all been there, and that’s just how life works. Those who have the money, get the Windstones they want. Some have to work harder then others, but that’s true in every aspect of life. I’ve come to the realization I’ll never get a OOAK piece cause I’ll never afford one, but it’s not anyone else’s fault I can’t get do it so blaming anyone for that isn’t right.
Got a busted Windstone?

I didn’t point a finger at you then and I’m not doing it now. It was resolved forever ago and graciously, at that. There is a lesson in that for all of us. If you took my post the wrong way, I apologize.
November 25, 2007 at 9:52 pm #638177LOL! Before I even saw anyone responded I edited it cause I re-read it and thought I sounded mad! π haha! Sorry babe, I wasn’t mad. I just forgot *in my lack of posting lately* how easily things are taken the wrong way.

That’s just it, I wasn’t blaming anyone else, I was just frustrated at the time I posted. This whole damn thing is getting blown way out of porportion.
I just would like a break, just once in a while…I don’t know why that makes me a spoiled brat, but according to Ski, it does.
I’m frustrated to know I never have a chance at the OOAK pieces too. I would like an SK, but I know as long as the only way to get one is through EBay, it will never happen.
I can’t justify spending over $500 on any Windstone, it wouldn’t be fair to my family to spend that kind of money on something so non-essential. But oh, it still hurts to see all these lovely things and know I will never afford one.
It was never my intention to make anyone else feel bad, I was just venting how I felt about it. Why this makes me an evil horrible person, I don’t really understand.
Anyway, I suggest we just drop this.

I’m sorry Kyrin, truthfully I’m on your side. I was here too once upon a time. I once saved a little over 600 bucks and managed to snag a Black Emerald Peacock Old Warrior who is the crown jewel of my collection. I don’t have any OOAKs or any on Nambroths or Olympias works at all. It was one of the best moments of my life seeing the “YOU WON” on the ebay screen after about a bazillion times of reloading the page every second. I completely understand where you are coming from. I ranted and raved on here all the time, not taking into account I could be hurting someone elses feelings. Not intentionally of course, but it happened to be that way in the end. Some people are just more financially fortunate then I am, and instead of resenting them for it….. cause I’d get snatched out of every Windstone I ever lusted for on ebay, I TRY *keyword TRY π * to be happy for them. It’s very hard and heartbreaking sometimes, but at this point it’s just an inevitability I’m come to accept. I keep thinking, Someday I’ll win the lottery and buy ALL the Windstones I want…then I do a jittery happy dance at the thought, LOL! It probably won’t happen but it keeps me from getting as mad as I used to.
Plus, when some certain people *cough cough* win some really great Windstones I actually can sit and watch the auctions tick away and route for my friends and also partake in the joy they feel when they are the winner. I have literally found myself cheering at an auction ending that I didn’t even bid on, just cause I’m happy for that person and I know the Windstone is going to a good and loving home where it will really be appreciated. I know, I’m a big putz π LOL!!!
The moral of my ramblings is that nobody is mad or thinks your a brat. As someone said, all is fair in love and ebay. Sad, but true. Don’t worry, when you finally win your emerald oriental sun dragon all the people here who you think are mad, will be cheering for you and your prize, so chin up. Okay sweetie, Don’t feel bad =) *hugs*

November 25, 2007 at 10:58 pm #638186Oh I’m sorry lamortfille, you asked me that earlier huh? I actually feel pretty good. Thanks for asking =) Of course, my health insurance got pushed through about a week after my operation so I kinda got a little peeved about that. I had to pay up front cause I kinda had some prior bills that I didn’t pay since I didn’t have health insurance back when I had strep throat and had to go to the emergency room like 5 years ago, LOL! It was like 695 bucks for them the look at my throat, flick me in the forehead, and throw some amoxocyllin at me. They’re crazy! HAH!
My money would be much better spent buying a new Windstone I think π It would make me feel a heck of alot better then the medicine would! hahaha!
